    Hazardous waste disposal?

    How are you guys disposing of/recycling your used coolant and tranny fluid? I know the City of Mesa is having a collection on Saturday 4/16/11 8 am-12 noon at Center St. n. of McKellips Rd.

    But is there some "place" you routinely take it to get it out of your garage? Particularly somewhere "east"?

    Thanks all.

    Here in Tucson you can take it to any Jiffy Lube, O'Reillys. Just fill some milk jugs. Never been turned away

    I thought they just took oil. Did you just drop off the jugs and they're OK with it? Cool!

    I usually dispose of my Hazardous waste early in the morning after my coffee.
